WASP have created a process that allows them to 3D print buildings out of recycled plastics or clay and ceramics. This highly sustainable approach to construction could revolutionise the industry as we know it, creating buildings that match their surroundings and leave no trace on the landscape. At Vision, visitors were able to experience this process through live demonstrations, accompanied by expert team members that can explain this complex modern method of construction.

In collaboration with some of the most pioneering digital thinkers, many of whom are involved in creating DE's augmented reality editions, the area included boundary pushers who mix the physical and virtual worlds using print, augmented reality, virtual reality, digital tech, 3D printing and film. The collaborators were Velapp, i2o3d, Studio Integrate, Deltalight and Ravensbourne University.
